This looks good to me. I think and contributors

@josephahaden Are you able to link your WordPress.org and GitHub profiles so we (committer contributors) can be sure to credit you correctly for the release? https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/03/19/associating-github-accounts-with-wordpress-org-profiles/ |
Updates the copyright notice for bundled themes to include contributors.
When contributing to WordPress, WordPress requires contributors license their code under the GPL. Unlike some projects there is no requirement to assign the copyright to WordPress.org or an associated entity.
This updates the copyright claim in the bundled themes to indicate copyright is retained by contributors.
